One of the great features of Postman is that it is really easy to integrate it with CI/CD tools like Travis CI, Jenkins, etc… In this post, we will take a look at how to run Postman tests on Travis CI.

Initial Setup

To get the tests running on Travis CI, you’ll need to do some initial setup –

  • Create a GitHub Repository and push collection and environment related files to GitHub
  • Connect your GitHub repository with TravisCI

Creating .travis.yml file

Once GitHub and Travis is connected, you can focus on creating the Travis configuration file which will look something like this –

language: node_js
node_js:
  - '14.4.0'

install:
  - npm install newman

script:
  - node_modules/.bin/newman run tests/Trello.postman_collection.json -e tests/Production.postman_environment.json

Once you push this file to GitHub, Travis will pick up the configuration file and start building your project and run all your tests in your collection.
